Selection of Part-Time Faculty Policy

The credentials for all faculty candidates are collected by the Human Resource Manager and
distributed to the Department Chair. The Department Chair has the initial responsibility to
review the credentials of prospective faculty and make selections for the interview process. The
Department Chair may then choose to initiate an initial phone interview with the candidate or
request a personal interview that will also include the corresponding Academic Dean. When the
interviews are complete, the Department Chair and Academic Dean will discuss the candidates
interviewed. The Department Chair is responsible for reporting all of the candidates received;
offer rationale for those not selected for interview and rationale for those interviewed who were
not selected for the position. This report will be filed with the Academic Dean. Following this,
with the approval of the Academic Dean, the Department Chair will then make a formal
recommendation for hire to the VP of Academic Affairs. Both the VP of Academic Affairs and
President will then meet with the prospective faculty member. The official offer of the position
is completed by the President.
